Amazon's next Echo speaker will reportedly focus on audio

Amazon is working on an updated version of its Echo speaker which will primarily focus on audio quality, Engadget reports.

The new Echo will allegedly be shorter and slimmer than the original, "almost as if it were three or four Echo Dots stacked on top of each other," the report says.

Amazon is also working on improved materials and overall design for the device, which will reportedly have more rounded edges and use a "cloth-like" covering, as opposed to the plastic of the current model.
